How to Make Aussie Fudgy Macadamia Nut Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 1 cup chopped macadamia nuts and 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 1-2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
